Cover art: 6/7Title: 5/7Story: 4.5/7Characters: 5.5/7Overall: 5.5/7

Willow knows she’s different from other girls. And not just because she loves tinkering around with cars. Willow has a gift. She can look into people’s futures, know their dreams, their hopes and their regrets, just by touching them. She has no idea where she gets this power from…But Alex does. Gorgeous, mysterious Alex knows Willow’s secret and is on a mission to stop her. The dark forces within Willow make her dangerous – and irresistible. In spite of himself, Alex finds he is falling in love with his sworn enemy.

Wow. This book was actually pretty good. It took a while to start up and i'm glad it started to get interesting when it did! Willow is a mans girl. She's good with cars, doesnt wear make up and other girls don't understand her. Everyone thinks she's crazy! Even her best friend. Its sad, i was kinda upset reading the start of this. But i'm not going to say anything in fear that I will give it away for all! She's relatable, so even though she is half angel (If I gave this away i'm sorry, but it just seemed to be a part that is well known and kinda obvious haha) she seems friendly and is easily liked! Alex, don't get me started on Alex! He's.....wow! Part of the reason I really like this book is because of the characters. Namely Alex. What makes him more attractive to me is his tattoo. This is really all i can say about him without gushing! The story line, while slow, was actually pretty good but what drew me in was the cover. This was the reason i bought the book. After reading the blurb I still wasn't sure, I put it back and went back and got it again quite a few times. But in the end i bought it and am glad I did!
